erm, no.
not a koi pond expert, but do know about building materials. thermalite blocks designed for use on the inside of buildings.
if well concrete coated on the inner of pool and well screeded outside, hopefully it will be ok for a few years. but keep outer well treated. hope this helps.
Hello, no is the answer,should have been 9wide x 9highx18long concrete blocks which you fill with concrete and reinforcing bars.The pond at present will be at its weakest when empty so keep a good level of water, Good Luck.
